The White-eared Sibia is a striking and active babbler endemic to Taiwan. It is characterized by its prominent white ear-coverts, dark crown, and grey body with rufous undertail-coverts.
Where to spot
Endemic to Taiwan. Inhabits montane evergreen forests, forest edges, and disturbed areas at moderate to high elevations, often seen in open habitats.
How to spot
Look for its bold white ear-coverts, which are its most distinctive feature. Listen for its loud, chattering calls. Its active nature and preference for more open areas make it relatively easy to spot.
When to spot
Resident year-round. Active throughout the day, often foraging in small groups. Can be easily observed, especially in tourist areas with feeding stations.
